Perched along a private ridgeline on 5.5 acres, this mountain retreat offers breathtaking long-range views from an elevation of 3,500 feet—capturing both sunrise and sunset vistas. From the yard facing east, enjoy views of Lake Junaluska, while the expansive, full-length double decks face west, showcasing sweeping panoramas across the Cataloochee Divide and the Great Smoky Mountains. Natural light fills the home, with west-facing views visible from nearly every room. The main level features a spacious living room with a cozy wood stove, a large eat-in kitchen, and a sunroom/dining area perfectly positioned to take in the scenery. The primary suite includes three closets, an ensuite bath, and convenient washer/dryer hookups, along with a half bath on the main floor. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a versatile bonus room (**enter BONUS Rm through the garage), plus a laundry/utility area and access to the attached one-car garage. French doors on both levels open to the decks, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Recent updates include a new roof (2024), water pump, and a reinforced retaining wall with improved drainage. Additional highlights include paved road access, low HOA fees ($500/year), no city taxes, and propane service for the range and water heater. Enjoy peaceful privacy, abundant wildlife, and a scenic walking trail along the ridgeline—all just 20 minutes to Waynesville and approximately 30 minutes to Asheville, Cherokee, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Offered furnished and ready to enjoy (a few exceptions). Your mountain escape awaits.
